Les Roses (1817–1824) by Pierre-Joseph Redouté, botanical artist to the French court, collects his paintings of the roses that Empress Joséphine, the wife of Napoleon, brought from around the world to Château de Malmaison. The work contains precise depictions of many old and original varieties that no longer exist and is not only prized for its scholarly value but also beloved to this day for its artistry and noble beauty. This high-quality-printed treasury faithfully reproduces the first edition in its original size. It’s a deluxe volume that fully showcases the beauty born of Redouté’s fine shades.
